✨ Just painted in microgravity for the first time and as part of a world first scientific experiment of this type. 🎨🚀

Humbled to join the very rare group of artists who have created in micro-G!
And so greatful for the support of my family, IIAS, friends. 🌌

🌕✨ Caught this Blood Moon during last year’s lunar eclipse in Canada.
Tonight (Sept 7–8, 2025), the Moon turns red again — visible across much of Europe as it rises already in eclipse. 🌑

Will you be watching?

🚀 Spotted a space jellyfish from #Montréal at 10:38 PM!
It was the Ariane 6 upper stage venting after launching Europe’s MetOp-SG A1.
800 km up, still in sunlight — exhaust spread into a giant glowing halo with wispy “tentacles.” 🌌🪼

Just finished a watercolor/gouache piece inspired by The Goonies:
The final battle of the Inferno, One-Eyed Willy’s pirate ship.
A tribute to the legends hidden beneath Astoria.

Space, The Final Frontier …

I had the honor to meet William Shatner, Captain Kirk himself—one of my biggest inspirations for pursuing my space journey. Sharing our photo and my watercolor of the mighty USS Enterprise. 🖖🏻

Met Sean Astin yesterday at Montreal Comiccon. Gave him a Hobbit watercolor to thank him for inspiring me since The Goonies. And then I gave him my flight suit name tag and he made me sign it. Giving hope and joy with a simple act of kindness.

Last week Fire Sun above #Montreal. Climate change causes hotter, drier conditions, increasing the frequency and intensity of Canadian wildfires by drying vegetation and extending fire seasons.

Lucky to witness Northern Lights often here in Canada — these oil paintings are my way of preserving their magic. A reminder to protect our night skies from light pollution. Originals available for purchase.

✨✨Just finished my oil painting of the Eagle Nebula — a year-long journey blending space, science, and art.

I’m training at IIAS to become an astronaut, and painting helps me stay grounded while reaching for the stars.✨🚀🎨

The U.S. administration’s proposed NASA budget cut threatens key programs like Artemis. Skip straight to Mars? Let’s be clear: whether due to radiation, unknowns in human physiology, mental strain, or accidents—astronauts will die. That’s why we must learn from the Moon first.

M81 & M82 from Utah — dark skies are fading fast. Light pollution & satellites grow. We need binding laws to protect the night.
